About 35 minutes drive south east of Hilo is Pahoa. The Pineapple House is located 10 minutes from Pohoiki, the geothermal hot ponds, world class snorkeling, and the black sand beach of Kehena. Kailua Kona is the main hub of the western Kona coast. The Kona coast drives takes over 45 minutes stretching from Kailua-Kona to beyond Kealakekua Bay. Stop along the way for a dip in the calm and clear waters perfect for snorkeling, diving, and to spot dolphins and sea turtles.

Hostels on Oahu

Oahu is known as the 'gathering place' and the fact that it's home to three quarters of the Hawaiian population as well as the favoured destination for four and a half million tourists every year should offer some indication as to how this name came about. The main hub on Oahu is Honolulu and we've lots of hostels in Honolulu and nearby Waikiki for some surfing lessons? If surfing is not your thing, there's also plenty of shops, museum, aquarium and Pearl Harbour to visit. If you've prefer to watch the pro-surfers or a bit of a pro yourself, head to the north shore of Oahu. The hub of the north shore is the town of Haleiwa, a very laid back surfing town. Some of the hostels in Haleiwa even offer free airport pick ups.
